KenPom Rank/

14 7/+10 (with Louisville)
15 9/+3
16 7/+8
17 7/+6
18 7/+6
19 7/+7


Um so yeah not really. It’s been the exact same conference since 2016.

Here is the fun part - the tiny marginal improvement from 18 to 19... a lot of it is UConn.

Houston, USF, and UCF are better than a couple years ago. Temple and SMU are worse. Memphis is about the same. Cinci has been pretty steady. IDK who else is in the league.

Sorry @whaler11 I’m an eye test guy. I can see things that analytics can’t. I’d rather rip my eyes out than watch an AAC game. I guess I agree with Kenpom then.

I watched SMU/Tulane last night. I think I may have detached my retina again.

 

[Robertelamin]

Speaking of analytics, is there an “explosive strength” or first night with the Women’s team built into these? Quite frankly, they matter.

All I watch outside of UConn is Big East games so I don't know exactly how much the AAC sucks but I'm pretty sure everything about it still sucks.

Yea, well, I haven't even had a chance to watch the UCF game yet (shh, don't tell me what happened), so I guess I've got you beat.

Tulane’s logo is awesome... but that is the list.

Meant to ask, how is everything going with that?

You know the Six Million Dollar Man? Yea, well, Whaler is worth 7, so all in all, pretty good.

Had to look it up, don't know what it is but I like it.

What the hell are the players coming out of? It looks like a tooth.

Good timing.

My right retina detached in mid-December. Surgery went ok - it was harder than the first and I was the first person they had stay awake for it in a year.

The bad news - think it redetached this morning based on what I’m seeing.

Headed towards three eye surgeries in 7 months - pretty excited.

 

[Mano]

Its a big ole frothy green wave bro.

More like 4.5 in this market.

What the heck happened?

 

[whaler11]

What the heck happened?

Nothing other than I am predisposed to it because I’m extremely nearsighted.

My left detached in June when I stood up from laying around my hotel room - went half blind instantly.

My right I started seeing odd flashes and lights in early December but I never lost vision.

This morning I started seeing the odd flashes and lights again. Hopefully tomorrow they can fix it with a laser because the surgery is a total pain in the rear.

No worries, I won’t spoil it for you but they lost.

You may as well told him East Side was out of sauerkraut when he was on his way to his table.

That sounds awful and frightening. I hope it all goes well.

Woah that's scary. Hope all is well.

They have food there? @Mano we should go.

Theirs is the wurst. Ah-ha ha, ha. Ahem.

But really. Spaetzle is just terrible pasta, but who doesn't like a sausage?

Yeah, hard pass on spaetzle, it’s over cooked pasta. I’m sure @August_West has a spaetzle machine though.

Have you jokers been to the brewery that is open like 90 minutes 3 days a week?
